Electric two-wheelers are gaining traction in India due to their lower running costs, reduced maintenance requirements, and quieter, more comfortable riding experience.<\/p>\n
Between January and September 2026, India recorded over 15.6 lakh electric two-wheeler registrations, surpassing the total registrations for the full year 2025.<\/p>\n
Leading manufacturers include TVS, Bajaj, Ather, and VIDA (Hero MotoCorp). In September 2026 alone, registrations exceeded 2 lakh units, underscoring the growing demand for electric mobility in the country.<\/p>\n
In accordance with the Vahan registration statistics from September 2026, the following brands were among the most popular electric two-wheeler manufacturers:<\/p>\n
As of September 2026, TVS Motor maintained its position as the market leader in India’s electric two-wheeler sector, with over 54,000 registrations. Approximately 26 percent of the market was held by it.<\/p>\n
By far the most well-known electric scooter produced by the firm is the TVS iQube.<\/p>\n
Because of its user-friendly design, well-established service network, and a wide range of versions, it has gained popularity among those who commute in urban areas.<\/p>\n
The Bajaj Chetak<\/strong> was another major seller, recording approximately 48,000 registrations in September 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Bajaj held about 23% of the electric two-wheeler market<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The Chetak combines Bajaj’s traditional scooter heritage with electric technology.<\/p>\n Its familiar design and expanding dealership network have helped it attract many customers.<\/p>\n Around 30,500 electric two-wheelers were registered by Ather Energy in September of 2026, giving the company around fifteen percent of the market share.<\/p>\n More specifically, Ather is well-known for the technologically advanced scooters and connected features that it offers.<\/p>\n In order to attract a greater number of clients, the company has also broadened its product offering.<\/p>\n Approximately 24,300 registrations were recorded by Hero MotoCorp’s VIDA in the month of September 2026.<\/p>\n At the time, it controlled around 11.7% of the market for electric two-wheelers.<\/p>\n Hero MotoCorp’s vast experience in the Indian two-wheeler sector and its enormous service network are both strengths that VIDA can leverage to its advantage.<\/p>\n In September 2026, Ola Electric registered roughly 13,450 electric two-wheelers, which indicated that the company had approximately 6.5% of the market share.<\/p>\n With models that were loaded with technology and a strong emphasis on electric mobility, Ola was able to assist in the widespread adoption of electric scooters among Indian consumers.<\/p>\n When it came to the electric vehicle sector in India, Greaves Electric Mobility’s Ampere was another significant contender.<\/p>\n Furthermore, according to data gathered from Vahan, it recorded more than nine thousand registrations in the month of September 2026.<\/p>\n Ampere is a company that focuses on providing practical electric mobility and sells solutions catering to commuters on a daily basis.<\/p>\n In the market for electric two-wheelers in India, River has been beginning to garner more attention.<\/p>\n During the year 2026, the company experienced a significant increase in sales, with the number of units registered reaching more than 5,000 in the month of August.<\/p>\n River’s products are built with functionality and urban commuters in mind through their design.<\/p>\n BGauss is yet another electric two-wheeler producer in India that has grown its foothold in the current market.<\/p>\n There were approximately 4,800 units registered in August of 2026.<\/p>\n The company specializes in electric scooters that can be used for personal transportation on a daily basis.<\/p>\n In September 2026, Bounce Electric registered roughly 3,000 units, which was equivalent to approximately 1.5% of the market for electric two-wheelers.<\/p>\n One of the company’s most notable accomplishments is the creation of cost-effective electric transportation solutions for Indian consumers.<\/p>\n During the month of September 2026, e-Sprinto finished in the top 10 manufacturers, recording over 2,000 registrations.<\/p>\n The rise in popularity of electric two-wheelers can be ascribed to a number of different factors, including the following:<\/p>\n When compared to gasoline-powered vehicles, electric vehicles often have lower operating costs per kilometer.<\/p>\n This is due to the fact that electricity might be more cost-effective than gasoline for day-to-day commutes.<\/p>\n Electric vehicles (EVs) have a smaller number of moving mechanical components compared to conventional gasoline-powered vehicles.<\/p>\n The need for some routine maintenance may be reduced as a result of this.<\/p>\n As a result of the gradual expansion of charging infrastructure across Indian cities, electric two-wheelers are becoming more convenient for people who use them on a regular basis.<\/p>\n Consumers now have the ability to select from a variety of products that are offered by both traditional manufacturers like TVS, Bajaj, and Hero as well as startups that are focused on electric vehicles like Ather and Ola.<\/p>\n Manufacturing companies are being encouraged to develop additional models and to expand their networks as a result of the growth of the industry itself.<\/p>\n Depending on the information that was utilized, according to September 2026, electric two-wheelers represented approximately 11% to 12% of the total number of two-wheeler registrations.<\/p>\n The electric two-wheeler market in India has become increasingly competitive in recent years.<\/p>\n Both TVS and Bajaj were responsible for about half of the registrations that took place in September 2026. Additionally, TVS, Bajaj, Ather, and Hero MotoCorp were collectively responsible for approximately 76% of the registrations.<\/p>\n The fact that this is the case demonstrates that well-established vehicle manufacturers are gaining a greater significance in the electric mobility market in India.<\/p>\n Customers in India are increasingly choosing electric vehicles (EVs) for their daily commutes, which is contributing to the rapid expansion of the electric two-wheeler market in India.<\/p>\n Firms such as Ampere, River, BGauss, Bounce, and e-Sprinto are also contributing to the expansion of the market. TVS, Bajaj, Ather, VIDA, and Ola are among the top names in the industry. Other firms have also contributed to the market expansion.<\/p>\n Electric two-wheelers are becoming an increasingly essential component of India’s transportation environment. The number of registrations for these vehicles has already surpassed the total volume for the year 2025 during the first nine months of 2026.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Electric two-wheelers are gaining traction in India due to their lower running costs, reduced maintenance requirements, and quieter, more comfortable riding experience.
